osa L. ) Is commonly used by beekeepers. Confusion has been seen in botany, and the correspondence between Japanese names, Chinese names, and scientific names has been mixed. Xianfeng grass used in the present invention includes these. [0002] Flowers are peculiar to the Asteraceae family, with 5 to 8 tongue-like flowers, such as white or yellow round petals, and several tens of tan tubular flowers in the center. The stem has square, light purple colored nodes. The leaves, which are divided into three or five wings, have a handle, and the edges are jagged to counteract. [0003] In Japan, it is found south of the warm region of Honshu, Taiwan,
Plant height 25-85c distributed throughout China and the tropics of the world
m annual grass. Blessed with warm climate conditions, flowers bloom one after another. There are needles with barbs on the top of the black-brown seeds that are carried on the clothes of animals and humans, and in China they are called Oni-kusa. The taste in Chinese medicine is slightly cold to flat, sweet to bitter and non-toxic. Traditionally, sprout, young leaves and young stalks are eaten raw, fried or boiled and soaked for food. Juice that has been thoroughly washed and excluding twigs and leaves has been popular as a soft drink. It does not act on colon bacilli but is resistant to pathogenic bacteria and is known to inhibit S. aureus in in vitro tests. [0005] Xianfeng is a herb that has been around for a long time,
Decoction of the dried ground as a folk herb, antipyretic, detoxifying, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antidiarrheal, diuretic, hepatitis, nephritis, cephalititis, diabetes, cystitis, urethritis, rheumatic arthritis, bronchitis,
It has been used internally for swelling, gastrointestinal diseases, diarrhea, indigestion, etc., and has been used externally for swelling and pain in the throat and bruises. In general, if it is fresh, 10-15 g of water is decocted in 400 ml of water, boiled down to half and drink. In particular, for severe cecal inflammation with adhesions, drink decoction or eat sprout as it is,
Alternatively, if you grind about 60 g and drink the juice (you can add a little nectar or salt), the inflammation and pain will stop. Swollen sore throat should be gargled as soon as it is drunk. It has some bactericidal and bacteriostatic action, so it has been used for trauma such as bruises, washing and swabbing the swollen area. In Taiwan, there are many people who use wild folk medicines such as prickles and ginger in Japan. It is said that flowers have a yellow color but have a weak effect and are good for medicinal purposes. Also a Chinese medicine doctor
You can get Xianfeng soybean extract powder at the drugstore you use. [0007] As described above, despite the fact that Xianfeng has been widely used in China or Taiwan for a long time, its usefulness is little known in Japan, as it is used in a part of Okinawa Prefecture. Compared to the days when modern people lived together with nature, as well as nature, the spread of air pollution and the spread of chlorinated waterworks and air conditioners, as well as the development of lighting, led to an increase in sleep time. Insufficient and irregular food and beverages, such as low-temperature beverages due to the spread and development of refrigerators and cold chains, and the consumption of foods that are not always safe and contain food additives and environmentally-derived chemicals. Therefore, the tendency to avoid genetically modified foods and to welcome organically grown vegetables is increasing year by year. In view of these trends, mild medicinal plants, such as Xianfeng grass, which have been given from the natural world, can recover the healthy life of the past in the sense of returning to nature for modern humans poisoned by civilization. Is considered to be a noteworthy material. The present inventors have paid attention to the usefulness of Xianfeng so
As a result of in vitro or in vivo tests, it was suggested that the active oxygen scavenging action, the glucose tolerance improving action, the anti-inflammatory action, and the like were suggested. Thus, the present invention was completed with the intention of widely providing these to modern society. . BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Crude medicines used as needles are mainly made of Bistrophyta bidens pylosa L .. Alternatively, Cobanosendangsa (= Bidens bipi
nnata L. et al. ) Whole grass (dried above ground in autumn)
Is sun-dried. It is also used as an extract like general crude drugs. In addition, as described above, it may be used raw, and as a beverage such as tea, only a sun-dried beverage is used. [0011] Despite being a useful medicinal herb as described above, Xianfeng herb has a unique aroma and subtle sweetness, a unique smell, There is no tingling in the throat, and some people are quite resistant to drinking. In addition, in the case of decoction of raw Xianfeng soup and the decoction of commercially available dried material, the latter is lighter in color and taste, and considering that it was originally decocted and used in sunlight, It is considered that the extract is difficult to extract even when decocted. The present invention is intended to eliminate such disadvantages and to provide a processing method which makes Xianfeng herbs delicious, without resistance, and can exert a sufficient medicinal effect. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The herbal medicine is usually prepared by drying in the sun or in the shade. Rarely, some ginseng, like red ginseng, is dried through a process such as passing steam or hot water, but it seems to be meaningful to extract the components of the aged hard rhizome. In the case of the above-ground part containing the soft leaves of herbaceous plants, such a need is not usually required and the practice is not carried out. In Taiwan, Xianfeng herbs are sun-dried and chopped and sold to crude drug stores. However, the inventors have found that adding a process such as steaming or kneading before drying the Xianfeng soybean will have an unexpected effect on removing the aforementioned "specific smell and the irritability that does not pierce the throat". We thought that it might give birth, and tried to dry the grass through washing and kneading after washing and cutting the grass. As a result, as expected, "specific smell and the irritability of a bit of a throat" could be reduced to almost a practical level, and those further treated by the method of the present invention, during steaming Although a large amount of brown juice dripped and it seemed that there was considerable loss of extract, it was found that the elution rate to the decoction when decocted as medicinal water was higher than that simply dried in the sun . It is said that the flower of Hampeng blooms in the fall, but if the environmental conditions are good, it grows up to about 50 cm in about 3 months after sowing and the flower blooms, so it seems that it blooms all year round. The best time to harvest is when the plants have grown sufficiently and have begun to flower. Harvesting leaves a little roots, cuts off, removes foreign matter and dead leaves, and rinses with running water. After washing, it is easy to handle the cut to about 5 cm or less, but it is not necessarily limited. [0016] The best method is to steam the cut Xianfeng soybeans while making them flow, but it is also possible to put them in a container leaking water and steam them in a steamer as they are. A steaming time of about 30 minutes is sufficient, and it depends on the relationship between the amount handled and the capacity of the steamer. In some cases, it is necessary to stir the steam on the way to bathe the steam. After the steaming, the stem is immediately put into a clean kneading machine, and the stem is crushed for about 10 to 30 minutes to be kneaded. The time is not necessarily limited because this process also depends on the performance of the machine. In essence, the purpose is to crush and crush the hard part of the stem. Immediately after steaming, crushing and crushing are completed, they are spread on a drying shelf and dried with hot air. If the drying temperature is too low, it takes too much time, and there is a risk that bacteria falling from the air may propagate and may be deteriorated, and the limit value is 50.
° C or higher. Conversely, if the drying temperature is too high, there is a risk of destruction or deterioration of useful components, and there is a disadvantage that the surface hardens rapidly and it is difficult to dry inside. High temperature limit is 90
° C. Preferably, it is 60 ° C. or more and 80 ° C. or less. The drying time is about 10 to 20 hours, and it is preferable to dry the stem until it snaps and snaps.
Since these conditions also depend on the amount of crushed and processed Xianfeng soybeans to be spread on the drying rack and the capacity of the ventilation dryer, the temperature and time must be appropriately determined according to the actual situation. Although the plants are adhering to bacteria in the natural world, the degree of cleanliness is increased following the steps of washing, steaming, crushing, crushing, and drying. As in general food processing, it is necessary to control the process to eliminate conditions where microorganisms may proliferate, such as an increase in waiting time on the way. Test Example 1 Hereinafter, a specific description will be given with reference to test examples. (Effect of flavor improvement) 36 kg of Xianfeng grass, which was cut about 10 cm from the root and removed foreign matter, was washed with running water, half (sample B) was dried in the sun as it was, and half (sample A) was chopped and large-sized steamed After steaming for about 30 minutes while stirring occasionally with a mixer, immediately put about 20
The stem was crushed, rubbed and crushed over a period of minutes, and air-dried at 70 ° C. overnight. After adding 1 liter of water to 3 g of each and decocting for 5 minutes, letting each of 5 men and women drink and compare the flavors, all of the decoction of sample B was “with a peculiar smell and without stinging the throat slightly. Although there is "ishness", it was hardly felt in the decoction of sample A. Test Example 2 (Mineral Profile) As a result of X-ray fluorescence analysis of A in Test Example 1, K and Ca were used as major elements, Mg, Cl and Fe as minor elements, and P and S as trace elements. , Mn, Cu, Zn and the like were detected. Test Example 3 (Improvement Effect of Extract Extraction Rate) Samples A and B of Test Example 1 and a wind-weed plant (nickname of Xianfeng grass) commercially available in Taiwan were used as sample C, and the three samples were compared. 80 in advance
Dry with hot air at 5 ° C for 5 hours to make the drying loss almost uniform, 50g each
, 1 L of tap water was added thereto, and the mixture was gently decocted for 1 hour over low heat, returned to room temperature, the supernatant was collected with a centrifuge, the residue was washed with boiling water, and adjusted to 1 L with the supernatant. As a result, as shown in Table 1, the extractability of A was clearly higher than that of B. Although the ash content in the extract was higher in B than in sample A, it is considered that this was the result of the outflow into the cooking liquor. There was little difference in pH. The lower extract and ash content of Sample C than Samples A and B may be due to differences in grown soil. [Table 1] Test Example 4 (Examination of Reasons for Improving Flavor) With respect to Samples A and B of Test Example 1, it was found that the difference in the treatment method greatly affected the flavor, so that the sample was collected at the bottom of the steamer during cooking. As a result of the loss of minerals and tannins in the brown liquid `` specific smell and a little bit of stuffy throat ''
I thought that disappeared, and analyzed the contents of minerals and tannins. Table 2 shows the results. As a result, surprisingly, these minerals and tannins were higher in sample A except for potassium, and "a unique odor,
"It doesn't seem like a bit of a throat tingle" was found to be due to these minerals and tannins. Moreover, although it is thought that a considerable amount of components have flowed out into the pool,
The tannin content (another lot yielding a value of 3.37) was instead increased. [Table 2] Test Example 5 (Examination of Distilled Distillate) When the sample A was prepared, the distilled distillate was 108 kg of raw Xianfeng grass
Approximately 70 liters per minute, and the dried product yield at this time is 13.5 k
g. The analytical values are as shown in Table 3. [Table 3] The apparent loss rate (%) from the analysis values in Table 3 and the value of Sample A in Test Example 4 is as shown in Table 4. [Table 4] In other words, despite the fact that there was almost no loss of minerals due to the steaming process and that one third of tannin had flowed out, the analytical value of the product according to the present invention was, as shown in Test Example 4, the sun-dried value. It was higher than the one. This is considered to be due to the fact that when the tannin was dried in the sun, it was polymerized due to air and light and became hard and hardly extracted, resulting in a low value measured. Considering this, the extraction rate of the extract of Test Example 3 was high not only because the tissue was softened and loosened by crushing and crushing, but also because the tannin that was easily polymerized was removed. It can be understood that the extraction of the components is facilitated at the time. The reason why the burning residue was lower in A than in B was considered that water-soluble minerals first flowed out during the steaming. As mentioned at the outset, there is a description that Hamfeng is used as a folk medicine for external use, such as for washing local areas of bruises or trauma, and also for gargle. When the wound was washed with this solution, the bleeding stopped immediately, and the wound was not so spotted that the next day the wound was so clear. Next test example 6
As noted above, Xianfeng herbs have been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects, and may also have tannins' astringent and bacteriostatic or bactericidal effects. It is thought that there is also an effect. In addition, this pooled liquid has a faint flavor when diluted and drinkable, and may be used as a soft drink. Test Example 6 (Anti-inflammatory activity) 4 kg of the product of the present invention was extracted with 9 L of ethyl acetate, the residue was further extracted with 9 L of methanol, and the solvent was evaporated to prepare an extract. Six-week-old male mice preliminarily bred for one week were divided into three groups, and a total of 1 mg / 20 μL of each extract was applied to the inside and outside of the right auricle of the mouse.
0 μL, and in the positive control group, indomethacin 0.5 mg /
20 μL was applied. TPA (12-O-Te) after 30 minutes
tradecanylphorbol-13-ace
Tate) 0.5 mg / 20 μL was applied to the same site of all mice to cause artificial inflammation, and the thickness of the pinna was measured 5 hours later. As a result, the inflammation inhibitory effect of indomethacin, a medical anti-inflammatory agent, was 79.4% as compared with the control group,
Ethyl acetate extract of the present invention showed an inhibitory rate of 53.3%, and methanol extract showed an inhibitory rate of 79.1%. In particular, methanol extract showed an anti-inflammatory action comparable to indomethacin. Test Example 7 (Cancer Promoter Suppressing Effect) The inhibitory effect of azoxymethane-induced murine colonic crypts induced by azoxymethane used for short-term screening of colorectal cancer was tested. That is, 6-week-old male mice preliminarily reared for 1 week were grouped into 6 mice, and 1 group of azoxymethane per kg of body weight was used.
0 mg was subcutaneously administered to the right lower limb of the mouse, and one week later, a second administration was similarly performed. From the day before the first administration, each group was allowed to freely take drinking water with a sample concentration of 73 ppm. The positive control group was given free access to drinking water containing 15 ppm of the anti-inflammatory agent piroxicam, which had an inhibitory effect in this system. The body weight was measured once a week, the colon was removed 4 weeks after the first administration of azoxymethane, and after fixing with formalin, the number of abnormal colon crypts stained with methylene blue was measured under a microscope. During this time, there was no decrease in body weight, there was no difference in water intake between the groups, and no toxicity by the sample was observed. In the sample administration group, both the ethyl acetate extract and the methanol extract significantly reduced the number of lesions per colon, but the number of abnormal crypts per lesion was not so different from that of the control group.
That is, it is considered that the formation of a lesion is mainly suppressed rather than the progression of the lesion, and thus the inhibitory effect of a tumor promoter is suggested. Test Example 8 (Antidiabetic Action) Male C3H mice of 4 weeks were divided into three groups: a control group (6), an STZ group (9), and a test group (11). Streptozotocin 150 mg / kg body weight
Was intraperitoneally injected on the first day and the next day. The control group and the STZ group used the standard feed CE-2 manufactured by CLEA Japan, and the test group used the standard feed C.
E-2 was allowed to freely ingest feed containing 0.25% of the product powder of the present invention. Two weeks later, the blood glucose, blood cholesterol, and GPT of each group were measured, and the results shown in Table 5 were obtained. [Table 5] With regard to blood glucose, the STZ group significantly increased (risk rate: 0.1%) as compared with the control group, and the test group suppressed this significantly (risk rate: 5%). Cholesterol and GPT measured at the same time significantly increased (risk ratio 1%) in the STZ group as compared to the control group, and the test group showed a tendency to suppress this. That is, there was an inhibitory effect on artificial hyperglycemia and liver damage induced by streptozotocin. Separately, 4-week-old male SD rats were divided into a control group (8), a CPH group (8), and a test group (7).
The test group and the CPH group consisted of standard feed C made by CLEA Japan
The test group was allowed to freely ingest the feed containing 0.25% of the product powder of the present invention mixed with the standard feed CE-2 in the test group. CPH
45m / kg body weight daily after 1 week for group and test group
g of cyproheptadine was orally administered, and after 5 weeks, a glucose tolerance test of 40 g per kg of body weight was performed.
The progress of the blood glucose level was measured every minute for 100 minutes. Table 6 shows the results. [Table 6] That is, the CPH group showed a significant value (risk rate: 0.1%) at each time as compared with the control group, but the test group showed a significant value (1% at a risk rate of 0 minutes, then 0.1%). %) And showed high sugar tolerance. Measured at the same time. The GOT and GPT measured at the same time also tended to increase in the test group. That is, an inhibitory effect on artificial pancreatic damage induced by cyproheptadine was observed, and microscopic observation of pancreatic sections also showed that tissue cavitation was suppressed. Test Example 9 (Prototype Production of Healthy Tea) The general analysis values of the product of the present invention are as shown in Table 7, and have the ability to scavenge active oxygen. Considering the results of the mineral analysis, daily healthy tea The conditions suitable as are provided. [Table 7] Although it is possible to collect wild plants, the present inventors are concerned about contamination by unspecified substances in recent environmental conditions. Cultivated and used as Miyako Bidence Pirosa. Miyako Bidens Pirosa is characterized by a higher calcium and potassium content than other general health tea ingredients. Perhaps because of the growth of coral reef soil in Miyakojima, the calcium content reached 1.91%,
